Abezethibou was one of the weaker demons of Zeref and also one of the first demons, Zeref made. So he isn't really intelligent and also not really strong, but still a Demon if Zeref. Ryu and Masaru took the job and headed to the estimated location of Abezethibou.
After four days of walking, they arrived in a beautiful flat landscape full of grass and bushes. There was a building in middle of nothing and Ryu and Masaru went to the building. They knocked at the door and an old man opened the door. The old man was surprised to see anyone around and asked:"Why are so young people here in a god forsaken place?" Ryu then replied:"We are from Fairy Tail and are searching for the person who send the mission to defeat the demon Abezethibou." The man's expression darkened as he heard the name and said to them:"Come inside." Ryu and Masaru followed him inside. The inside of the building was amazingly clean and polished. The man offered the boys a place to seat and asked if they want something to drink. After that, the man started to explain the situation:
"There is this illegal guild "Wolfs of the Night" which has the book of Abezethibou and has summoned him. And now they want to rule over this land with the help of Abezethibou's power. With this power they would be strong enough to exterminate all the small guild located in this area and be the main power in this area. That's why I asked a big guild to help, otherwise I would have asked a local guild, but they also said that this is too big for them and that it would be better to hire a big guild with this job." Ryu then asked:"Where is the base of this illegal guild and where are the bases of the local guilds." The old man than took out a map of the area and pinned down some places. One in black and three in blue. He then said:"The black one is the base of the illegal guild. As you can see it's in the north. The first and strongest local Guild is in the south, the other two local guilds are in west and east, but their power is very low as if these two were to combine their power, they wouldn't even stand a chance against the one in the south and the one in the south is probably as strong as you two or weaker as I don't really know your strength. And we are here." The old man pinned down another location in the middle of the map. Ryu then said:"Ok thanks, can we take this map with us? It would be a great help." The old man nodded and gave them the map and Ryu and Masaru went outside and discussed their plan.
Ryu:"Ok we will split. One goes to look how strong the enemy is while the other goes to the guild in the south to ask them for help to defeat the illegal guild while we focus on Abezethibou."
Masaru:"Ok but who goes to North and who to south."
Ryu:"Let's grow a coin cause you probably also want to go north."
Masaru:"Ok: Head is you go north, Tail is I go north."
Ryu:"Ok"
Ryu then threw a coin and Masaru catches it and slowly opened his hand. The coin was at Head, what means Ryu won and will go north. Masaru was a little bit disappointed but accepted it. Masaru looked a last time at the map before leaving south for the guild. Ryu then went north to spy on the illegal guild.
As Ryu arrived at the Guild base he saw ten people and one scary monster. The monster had red flesh and one seed wing. It also had a deformed face and blood-red eyes. The men all had black capes on them so Ryu could see, what they looked like.
Ryu hid in a tree and observed the ten men. He thought, that he was unnoticed but in the next moment, he heard a voice behind him saying:"Kid what are you doing here? That's not really a good place to play games."
